Oncological emergencies are defined as acute life-threatening conditions in cancer patients either as a result of the malignancy or as a result of its treatment. In this review, we focus on oncological emergencies associated with gastrointestinal tumors. They can be categorized by their system of origin as hematologic, neurologic or metabolic. Furthermore, we discuss mechanical emergencies such as intestinal obstruction and vena cava superior syndrome as well as acute gastrointestinal bleeding and pulmonary embolism. The patients' performance status as well as prognosis are essential during decision making for optimal treatment.
肿瘤急症被定义为癌症患者中因恶性肿瘤本身或其治疗而导致的急性危及生命的状况。在本综述中，我们聚焦于与胃肠道肿瘤相关的肿瘤急症。它们可根据起源系统分为血液学、神经学或代谢性。此外，我们还讨论机械性急症，如肠梗阻和上腔静脉综合征，以及急性胃肠道出血和肺栓塞。在做出最佳治疗决策时，患者的体能状态以及预后至关重要。
